The ipmiutil package provides easy-to-use utilities to view the SEL,
perform an IPMI chassis reset, set up the IPMI LAN and Platform Event Filter
entries to allow SNMP alerts, and other IPMI tasks.
These can be invoked with the metacommand ipmiutil, or via subcommand
shortcuts as well. Man pages are provided.
An IPMI driver can be provided by either the the OpenIPMI driver (/dev/ipmi0)
or Intel IPMI driver (/dev/imb), etc. If used locally and no driver is
detected, ipmiutil will use user-space direct I/Os instead.
